We'd Like a Second Opinion

And today you shall have one...

"WASHINGTON - NASA's Constellation program -- the successor to the aging space shuttle -- faces critical problems and might never work as intended, according to a congressional report set for release today."We do not know yet whether the architecture and design solutions selected by NASA will work as intended," says the 20-page report, obtained Wednesday by the Orlando Sentinel. It will be presented today at a congressional hearing that is taking a critical look at NASA's plan to return astronauts to the moon by 2020."

While there are problems, the story in the Orlando Sentinel seemed to exaggerate the concerns of the GAO. If you saw Thursday's congressional hearing it was all but a love fest between the GAO and NASA.

Don't be fooled by the DC Dance. The Sentinel got it right.
